XIV edition - Bla Bla Jazz
From 23 May to 6 July 2013 Zola Jazz & Wine is back, the festival of jazz music and wine tasting, sponsored by the Municipality of Zola Predosa under the patronage of the Province of Bologna and the Emilia-Romagna Region: seven doc events - and a special preview dedicated to the territory - characterised by great jazz music and fine wines of the Colli Bolognesi, including the famous Pignoletto DOCG.
Arrived at the XIV edition the show is renewed and the format is changed: the traditional weekday evenings
hosted in the wineries of the area, adquire an even more exclusive and intimate character, in
"Jazz club" style, with outdoor seating where you can sip wine while listening to acoustic concerts and of great atmosphere.
Along these events, a weekend dedicated to the contamination between jazz and pop, which will
see the exhibition of the great names of jazz, such as Stefania Martin, Fulvio Sigurtà and Danilo Rea, within
the prestigious location of the museum Ca la Ghironda, one of the most important private collections of modern art and
contemporary art.
But there's more. Waiting for the audience there will be the author living rooms in the comfortable resort
of the Museum, ideal to enjoy a relaxing weekend in the hills of Zola Predosa surrounded by nature,
art, music and flavors of the territory (prices starting from ? 169 for two people valid for the days
of 5 and 6 July 2013). Space to sustainability with the initiative Jazz & Wine By Bike, an wine-musical route
for expert bikers, in collaboration with the Monte Sole Bike Club on the occasion of
I.TA.Cà. Responsible Tourism Festival, which starts Thursday, 30 May, from the center of Bologna to Zola
Predosa following cycle paths and less known routes to reach the Lodi Corazza Company, home of the
second concert, where there will be a quick dinner and a special visit to the winery guided by the owners.
Even for 2013, the twinning project Jazz & Wine of Italy is renewed, that started last year by the
Zola Wine & Jazz festival with some of the best festivals Jazz & Wine of Italy: Jazz & Wine in Montalcino (SI),
organized by the winery Castello Banfi and the Jazz & Wine of Peace Festival of Cormòns (GO), organized by the
Controtempo cultural circle. To further strengthen the synergy created by the network of partnerships, Zola
Jazz & Wine will host the exhibition of drawings by Hans Horst Semier, Magic Moments, which portrays musicians
immortalized during the past editions of Jazz & Wine of Peace. Presenting at Montalcino Jazz & Wine
and at Jazz & Wine of Peace Festival with the ticket of Zola Jazz & Wine you will also be entitled to a reduced admission.
To attend the concerts this year will be even easier and more convenient, thanks to the free shuttle service, in
function for the two evenings of 5 and 6 July, which will link the Bologna city center to Ca la Ghironda, home of the
concerts of the weekend, and to the new booklet formulas that will allow to participate in the evenings at
extremely advantageous prices.
